Match Report
Campbellians 2
Saintfield 1
SAINTFIELD'S senior side needs to start winning, if it's to keep pace with the early league leaders.
Last weekend's defeat was a blow to Matt Owen's outfit which took the lead, but then conceded an equaliser in the final minute of the first half and what proved to be the winning goal in the dying seconds. Saintfield, who were missing Willie Heaney, started well and took the lead through experienced defender, Nigel Jackson, who scored from a well-worked short corner routine.
Owen's push out was controlled by Jackson and as the Campbellians defenders raced off the line he picked his spot, drilling the ball into the corner. At the other end, Graeme Finlay was a busy man in the Saintfield goal and during the 70 minutes he produced a string of top drawer saves, particularly from a number of short corners.
Having conceded the early goal, the Belfast side went on the attack, but Finlay was refusing to be beaten. When one forward produced a great reverse stick shot and was about to celebrate his "goal" the Saintfield 'keeper produced a blinding stick save to keep his side's slender lead in tact. With Finlay in commanding form, Campbellians were forced to vary their short corner routines in a bid to find a way past him, but they were struggling.
With just a minute until the interval, the Campbellians pressure paid off when they scored an equaliser from a short corner with a forward's strike giving Finlay no chance. The second period would be all about who had the desire to win and it was the Belfast side which looked the hungrier and fitter. Mervyn Patterson again played well for the visitors and will be a useful acquisition over the remainder of the season.
It was a case of all one-way traffic in the second half as Campbellians went on the attack, but the visitors were holding on, thanks to some dogged defending and of course Finlay's heroics. Saintfield were struggling to create chances at the other end and were also unhappy with a number of the umpiring decisions which interrupted their cohesion.
With a draw looking likely and the visitors literally hanging on by their fingernails, Campbellians dealt them a cruel blow when they scored the winner in the 68th minute and it was cruel on Finlay. He again produced a save, but the rebound fell to a home forward who scored. Two cruel blows denied Saintfield in the end and the locals will need to be firing on all cylinders when they face Omagh this weekend. On paper, the game is a home banker for the locals but things don't always work out that way and there is no room for complacency.
